Iowa Corn extends entitlement agreement as The Fastest Short Track on the Planet prepares for the NASCAR Cup Series’ return, Aug. 1-3
NEWTON, Iowa (June 17, 2025) – NASCAR and Iowa Speedway announced Friday that tickets are sold out for the NASCAR Cup Series’ Iowa Corn 350 Powered by Ethanol race on Sunday, Aug. 3. It also announced that Iowa Corn will continue as the entitlement partner through a multi-year extension with The Fastest Short Track on the Planet.
“This just proves we have incredible fans and unrivaled support from our partners at Iowa Corn,” said Iowa Speedway President Eric Peterson. “Their hunger and passion for NASCAR Cup Series racing is undeniable, and the anticipation for its return is off the charts. We look forward to celebrating another historic weekend of racing together.”
Ryan Blaney won the inaugural Iowa Corn 350 Powered by Ethanol last year as the NASCAR Cup Series made its long-awaited Iowa Speedway debut. Its follow-up effort this year includes a Busch Light Summer Concert Series performance from rising country music sensation Corey Kent and an expanded Fan Walk that will allow fans to get even closer to the action in the Iowa Speedway infield.
The one constant has been Iowa Corn, whose pivotal support has fueled the continued success of the Iowa Corn 350 Powered by Ethanol.
Fans are encouraged to act now to secure the scant number of tickets that remain available for the first two days of Iowa Speedway’s NASCAR Weekend. It begins Friday, Aug. 1, with the ARCA Menards Series’ Atlas Roofing 150 and continues Saturday. Aug. 2, with the NASCAR Xfinity Series’ Hy-Vee Perks 250. Saturday’s action also includes NASCAR Cup Series practice and qualifying, so fans who’ve missed out on Sunday tickets can still see the best drivers in the world compete.
Given that last year’s NASCAR weekend completely sold out, fans should visit www.iowaspeedway.com immediately to secure their tickets while supplies last.
